City of Evil (As Expected in the Fourth Quarter)

  "***, who is this guy, rushing ahead of me, I'm carrying such a big package with 800 bullets, it's not easy, and running up the stairs to climb such a high building, it seems we came in vain. E3 no bullet window" Xu Huaiqing picked up the package that was thrown on the ground and prepared to leave, the burning bus on the street attracted everyone's attention, no one noticed there were still people on the rooftop. Lisa turned around and walked towards the stairway, "Who cares who did it, anyway he will pay us, his goal has been achieved."

  Yahuan stayed in the barracks after reporting for duty, unaware of what was happening outside. During her cleaning time, she turned on the TV and switched to a music channel to listen to songs while tidying up. As she watched TV, she saw that the street police car team was attacked, so she quickly changed into combat uniform and ran out to the courtyard. All the vehicles belonging to the police were parked there, which were rented cars. Yahuan opened the door of a Land Rover military off-road vehicle with keys still in it, got in and drove directly to the crime scene.

  The street where the incident occurred has been sealed off by gendarmes and police, with an armed escort vehicle requisitioned by the gendarmes blocking the road. Police cars are flashing their lights on the side of the road, while a fire truck has extinguished the flames on the bus using water cannons. Only then did the gendarmes get a clear view of the scene: most people on the bus were already dead, with only a few having been killed directly by the blast. The majority appeared to have died from poisoning, as the fuel tank of the bus had burned dry and carbon monoxide gas had caused the occupants to suffocate to death. At the time of the fire, they were unable to escape while wearing handcuffs and shackles.

  "How could this be?" Ya Yun looked at the explosion site in surprise.

  "It's not surprising at all, I thought it would be like this since the day we cracked down on various crimes. This time they did it with a rocket launcher, and all the clues were cut off." Wen Yong sighed as he looked at the corpses in the car. Ya Yun grew up in the capital area, where the crime rate was low and the population was small, making it difficult to see scenes like this today. She studied maintenance of various land weapons in military school, her specialty was primary, she was very professional in maintaining platoon and company-level weapons, but she was not good at dealing with crimes. "The bandits are too rampant, aren't they?" She could only utter a simple sigh.

  "Get the funeral home to come and collect the body, we're preparing to withdraw. There's still a lot of work to be done every day, no time to waste with them. Wen Yong, you lead each team to continue patrolling in the city streets, pay attention to inspecting all vehicles. I don't want to find any more drugs in the nightclubs, tell everyone to patrol all day. Whoever doesn't want to eat canned food, I'll treat them. If they're hungry and want to eat something, it's okay, no need to keep receipts for reimbursement, I'm treating."

  "Yes." Wen Yong didn't want to say too much in front of the unfamiliar female soldier Ya Yun, and the military police team immediately got on the car and left the scene. Only Yu Fei was left here looking at the corpse, he also thought it was Xu Huaqing who did it. As a professional mercenary, using a disposable rocket launcher is the most basic skill. He first used his gun to burst the tire and force the convoy to stop, then blasted each vehicle that stopped on the road one by one, doing it very cleanly, hoping the police wouldn't notice him, as he still had many things to do afterwards.

  Only two soldiers were left on the scene, and Ya Yun didn't have time to communicate with this platoon leader. She only knew that her father had handed herself over to him for management. Looking at him, he wasn't very old, so why did he hand himself over to him for management? He wasn't a graduate of a regular military academy either, only a junior college-educated officer who was destined to be a small officer in an unimportant unit and would never become the core force of the national defense army. She quickly thought about it and started communicating with a casual topic, "You vacated the room for me to live in, where do you live? According to regulations, officers live in officer dormitories and cannot live in the same dormitory as commanding soldiers."

  "Officers can buy their own houses or rent apartments to live in, non-commissioned officers are the same, if you don't like living in the barracks you can move out and live on your own, but then you have to get up very early for work. I know this place myself, I've been here for some days too, and I've made some friends, finding a comfortable place to live shouldn't be a problem." Yu Fei felt like there was nothing else to do, so he chatted idly with the president's daughter.

  "Is it true you have a girlfriend?" Yaqi asked curiously.

  Yu Fei originally wanted to respond, but hadn't thought of what to say. Given his relationship with Wen Qian, she should be considered his girlfriend, but he wasn't mentally prepared for that yet. The situation had suddenly developed to this point and he felt unexpected about it too. He hadn't even thought about finding someone, but was already being pestered by others. Just as he was hesitating and didn't know whether to say yes or no, a police car came speeding over with its siren blaring and screeched to a halt on the road. A female police officer wearing sunglasses stuck her head out and asked: "What's going on? You had trouble yesterday and now again today, are you okay?"

  Wen Qian asked in the police car, "Yu Fei looked at Ya Yun with great embarrassment and then replied to Wen Qian, 'I'm fine, I was in an armored vehicle. If they were going to use rockets to blow up the armored vehicle, I would definitely be in trouble. But just like yesterday, they only dealt with their own accomplices. Are you still working the early shift today?'"

  "I get off work at 4 pm, do you want me to pick you up?" Wen Qian didn't turn off the police car engine, she still had a while before her shift ended. However, she also noticed that Yu Fei had an additional military officer with him, a non-commissioned officer with a low rank, likely a young female soldier who was responsible for teaching soldiers how to use and maintain weapons. The military was getting more and more women. Yu Fei looked at the police car and said: "Today I'm on duty all day, the more chaotic they are, the harder we should work to catch suspects. We can't let a city with millions of people become like a battlefield. If you're interested, you can take a look."

  "Who is this?" Wen Qian couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

  "The new armorer, I'll introduce you after work, busy with your job first." Yu Fei said, Wen Qian nodded in satisfaction and continued to patrol the streets in a police car. At this time, there were still many onlookers on the street, and the security patrol police kept pedestrians at a distance from the burned-out bus. After the funeral home's large refrigerated truck arrived, they began to transport the bodies. The staff of the local funeral home were accustomed to seeing all sorts of corpses, as the evil city had people dying every day, with gunshot wounds, knife wounds, blunt force trauma, and all sorts of injuries. There were also those whose faces were unrecognizable, and those who were covered in blood. But they had never seen anyone burned to death while handcuffed before. They understood who killed these people, and they weren't surprised or shocked at all.

  After watching the police car leave, Ya Yun asked: "Is she your girlfriend?"

  "It's not that I'm not, nor am I saying I am. I'm just not ready yet. All day long, I've been dealing with thieves outside, and there are many people who hope I die. So, I hope I'm not one of them. If something unexpected happens to me, then there will be one less person to worry about. What do you think?" Yu Fei looked around him, finding himself liking the city more and more - it was modern and beautiful. Unfortunately, there were just too many useless people around.

  "Is it like fighting a war in this city?" Yayun asked again.

  "Today, you'll be on duty all day. You'll gradually get used to it here and slowly start liking your job." After the body was taken away, Yu Fei voluntarily called the bus company to discuss compensation for the loss. He then got into the military police command vehicle. Ya Yun sat in the driver's seat, looking at the GPS navigation system on the car. She didn't know where she was supposed to drive to; she had never been there before. Yu Fei looked at the digital map and used a light pen to mark a location on it. "Let's go here first."

  With the help of the navigation system, Ya Yun drove the command vehicle on the spacious road, carefully observing the road and vehicles, trying to get familiar with the place as soon as possible. "Don't treat me like the president's daughter, the president is elected by everyone, my father's term is almost over, after that I'll just be an ordinary officer, you don't have to pay too much attention to his identity."

  "As far as I know, the congressman who supports your father has already started preparing for the next presidential primary election. Many people have nominated him, but there are also opponents, and it's hard to say who will win or lose. What if he gets elected again? All the soldiers care about is that you're his daughter, not their officer. When you speak, they'll definitely listen. I've seen news before, why weren't you by your father's side when he was on TV? The president can bring family members to many events." Yu Fei casually turned on the radio and listened to the wireless communication between the military police units.

  "He didn't take me out to participate in activities, saying that my grades were poor and leaving me at home to study hard. This was what he did for me in his first year of taking office. Later, when I had poor grades and couldn't go to a good high school, I went to military school instead, which is no different from prison. In the last year of his term, I could finally breathe freely." Yayun drove leisurely, feeling pretty good.

  "You mean this country is not free, or the president restricts your freedom. What you said may be unconstitutional, be careful, the Supreme Court and Constitutional Court can handle unconstitutional cases." Yu Fei finished speaking and laughed, Ya Yun knew he was joking and didn't continue to talk about it, but suddenly asked: "Are you moving out to live with your girlfriend?"

  "Oh my god, don't do this, what if the thieves come to her house and it becomes a battlefield? I also can't let soldiers stand guard at my residence. She's like a police officer and I'm like a constable, as long as we don't take bribes, we're enemies of the crime syndicate. Got it? It's like sitting on a volcano. I was thinking of going to the bank for a loan and hiring bodyguards. If I really get taken out by the criminals, I won't have to pay back the bank loan. I reckon the compensation for dying in the line of duty wouldn't be enough to cover the loan and security guard salaries."

  Yu Fei had a headache over this problem. He felt like he needed to calm down and deal with his personal issues. He hadn't thought about how to be someone's boyfriend.

  Yahuan stepped on the brakes and the car came to a stop. In front of them, the military police were inspecting the vehicles in the passing cars. A S-class C8 was about to be inspected when Yu Fei immediately got out of the car. He recognized Judge Chen Jiafang and told the soldiers: "Let it go immediately, check other vehicles, don't you recognize the judge?" Yu Fei wouldn't dare offend someone who could be useful to him. The better his relationship with the judge, the more miserable the criminals would be.
